Kreindler vs......

[Forever Young]

I stumbled upon two images the day of cobb's death 51 years ago. I know the second artist is very accomplished and probably a great fella but man..
I know now, without of shadow of a doubt, who the best sports artist alive is on this day.
This was very eye opening to me. GK .. you are the shiznit!! Just leaps and bounds beyond everyone else sir.. VERY IMPRESSIVE. RIP TYRUS

Agreed. The detail in Graig's is incredible. Almost photo-like.

Not to mention accurate as far as colors, shadowing, weather, ect.
Simply the best in talent, research and being small in stature. A TRUE TRIPLE THREAT!

I'd have to agree. Legendary dropped the ball and partnered with the wrong artist on this project. The Conlon's Graig has done to date are just spectacular.

This is coming from someone who owns several Dick Perez originals.

I like Graig's piece better too!
And like that Graig pictured an outfielder, when Dick chose not to

It's too bad they decide to waste Conlon's artistic brilliance on Perez!
I've never really thought much of Perez's art. I've always thought it had a cartoony quality to it. This painting is no different.
What I mean s that this one looks like a painting of a picture rather than a real life image. Most of Graig's work is so realistic it is simply incredible.
It's just a shame. Conlon deserves better.

Best,
Mark
